Marcus and I flew to Patagonia yesterday for a quick romp in the hillz, and were safely home by dark. We didn't top out b/c our cams froze solid and we didn't have enough pins to escape from the summit. We forgot goggles and the spindrift was blowing aroudn in eddy's so hard it got up under my sunglasses and sandpapered my eyeballs. It was a snice ripping, gargoyle 'sploding, cam breakin', hand freezing, dry tooling, pin whackin', ski crashin' good time! Patagonia Rules

hanging belay atop p1 of Exasperator!!!!! what a great day that was.

how tall is the east face from the bast of the gully?

maybe you should get a bitch brace?

sierras will be perfect

to slow the progression Ca,Mg,VitC,Glucosame/Chondroitin Sulfate w/MSM Movement to increase nutrition of cartilage: wobble boards, chiropractic adjustments. and.....cold laser. seriously. cold laser. try it.

Marylou, there are soft ankle braces made out of cloth with laces and posterior and or lateral stabilizers. just search the net. kinesiotape is a great alternative to provide proprioceptive feedback without being constrictive. downsides are price, constant re-taping, and irritation from the adhesive, but they stay on for a week. you can also put some pre-wrap on your ankle, do a good tape job, and cut it off, re-applying tape on the outside each time you use it.

Actually Wayne and Lane did it last fall and froze their asses off.

How many of those routes have ever been repeated? Acid Baby, Mythic Wall, and Back of Beyond have all had repeated ascents with reviews, bitch.

the tendon is covered in a well vascularize peritendon sheath, as well as the musculo-teninous juntion, and surrounding soft tissues, thus the need to ice days 1-5(7) for achilles tendinitis AND plantar fascitis: the "calf stretcher" is a straussenberg (sp?) sock. one of the best things you can do. x-fiber massage too (or graston technique). "short foot exercises" like curling a towel w/toes, or picking up a golf ball are helpful. Another method is low freq ultrasound (forget the name) similiar to the kind used to break up kidney stones. prevention: orthodics, heel lifts, tuli cups.

do NOT do alt hot/cold until after the inflammation has subsided!

**Shoes: too tight, too loose, poor fit. **Gait: over or under pronation: Tuli Cup (bilateral), bilat heel lifts, medial post, orthodics **Stretch Gastrosoleus avoid toe running ultrasound, Eletric Stim, transverse friction massage elastic tape for shock absorb adjust calcaneus and / or other foot subluxations Exercise: toe raises avoid running up or downhill longer warm-up ice when acute caused by tight gastrocs, bad shoes, biomechanical defects (subluxation, over/underpronation) rule out: bursitis, fracture, tennis leg, plantar fascititis

i mean "for"
